Camp Raider Zaire - Another Photo By My Friend Alley

This photo is hilarious. When Alley was camping in Zaire some young chimpanzees raided the camp and stole most of the food. Lucky for Alley she had plenty of backup from her hosts. Chimpanzees are amazing apes. They use sticks as tools to extract grubs and ants out of trees and logs. They have close cousins called the Bonobo. Bonobos live in peaceful groups, where the Chimpanzees are often in conflict. Some years ago I recall reading an article about chimpanzees literally going to war with each other. This had been caused by human encroachment and habitat destruction causing a serious lack of food resources. And like the Gorillas these intelligent animals are critically endangered. Hope you like the photo.

The Terrorist

She's the entire reason why this blog was started

“‎A farm is a manipulative creature. There is no such thing as finished. Work comes in a stream and has no end. There are only the things that must be done now and things that can be done later. The threat the farm has got on you, the one that keeps you running from can until can't, is this: do it now, or some living thing will wilt or suffer or die. Its blackmail, really.”

― Kristin Kimball, The Dirty Life: On Farming, Food, and Love
